She told the stories of families rebuilding their lives, followed recovery efforts closely, and investigated missing FEMA payments.

After her time in Montgomery, Hightower relocated to Greensboro, North Carolina, where she spent five years at the CBS affiliate. She began as a reporter and was later promoted to anchor. During her time there, she conducted investigative reports focused on government spending and accountability. One of her most memorable assignments was covering the 70th anniversary of D-Day in Bedford, Virginia. She traveled with World War II veterans, sharing their powerful firsthand accounts. The station’s coverage of the event earned an Emmy Award.

Hightower served as a news anchor and reporter in Nashville, Tennessee, where she reported on public safety, government misconduct, and political affairs. Among the most significant events she covered were the devastating mass shootings at a local church and a Waffle House in Antioch. She led extended live coverage during the unfolding tragedies and continued in-depth reporting for months, tracking the investigations and subsequent legal proceedings.
